Checklist For Tennis Rackets For Children

Racket Size
  • Tennis rackets are available for children as young as 3 years old. The range is between 19 and 26 inches in length, and the sizes are usually indicated with age groups.
  • If your child is 3 to 5 years old, a model with 19-inch length is the right choice, if your child is between 5 and 6 years old, you should choose a racket with 21-inch length.
  • Rackets with 23-inch length are suitable for children between 6 to 8 years, while 25-inch rackets are used up to 11 years.
  • Asa general rule, if your child is standing upright with his or her arm extended down the side, the distance between the index finger and the ground should give the appropriate racquet length.
Racket Head
  • The size of the club head plays an important role, especially for beginners. The larger the racket head, the easier it is to play.
  • If your child has just started playing tennis, you should choose an oversize racket head with an area between 680 and 740 cm².
Grip Strength
  • The handle thickness indicates how thick the handle is. You should make sure that at least one index finger fits between the ball and the finger when gripping the handle.
  • If your child is between two grip thicknesses, you should choose the smaller one. You can change the grip strength later with a grip tape.
Stringing
  • The hardness of the stringing is decisive for the playing characteristics. You should keep in mind that the stringing loses its hardness and must be renewed regularly.
  • Basically, the stringing should be 23 to 30 kg or 50 to 66 lbs.
